Geographic Information System (GIS) techniques are being increasingly and effectively used in morphometric analysis and groundwater potentiality mapping of drainage basin owing to its capabilities of manipulation, analysis, flexibility of experimentation and ability to extract topological attributes from various thematic maps, and to work as a unique tool for geospatial modelling. An attempt to...

The miners as well as the inhabitants vicinity to the mining areas are generally susceptible to the respiratory disorders due to constant exposure to the coalmine dust for a prolonged period. In this paper the dust concentration and dust dose associated with the rate of tuberculosis around the major part of Ib Valley Coalfield (Belpahar and Brajarajnagar area) have been analysed. Several field ...

The geology, mineralogy, and geochemistry of the Spetsugli high-germanium coal deposit in Pavlovsk coalfield were studied. is characterized by complex polyelemental composition ores can be evaluated as a rare metal-coal deposit. metal-bearing coals are abnormally high, tens or even hundreds times greater than mean contents for brown world, Ge, Sb, Hg, W, Li, Be, Cs, As. Somewhat less anomalous ...

The literature on a ‘sense of place’ often sidelines the voices children. Consequently, little is known about how children can be encouraged to develop sense place. This matters because place involves feelings belonging and attachment, contribute children’s wellbeing identity. Informed by research Bartos Severcan, we deploy data from qualitative project in primary school former coalfield area n...

The shallow-layer resources in the Huanghebei Coalfield have been depleted, and deep coal seam of Taiyuan Formation (lower group) is main continuous resource mining at this stage. With annual increase depth, exploitation lower groups being met with influence high ground stress, water pressure, temperature, strong disturbances, as a result which threat inrush particularly serious. Based on grout...

Deep, highly pressurized aquifers seriously threaten the exploitation of resources North China coalfield. At present, there is no particular guidance system to evaluate prevention and control effect water inrush disaster in deep coal seam mining. Therefore, this research focuses on evaluation method for confined Based upon various methods, such as effective thickness resistance capacity aquifug...

Intensive and large-scale underground coal mining has caused geological disasters such as local ground subsidence, cracks collapse in the Datong coalfield, China, inducing serious threats to residents. Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) capability of surface deformation detection with high precision vast mountainous areas. DInSAR, stacking-InSAR SBAS-InSAR are commonly used InSAR-...

In recent years, environmental pollution by coal mining is a long-established human activity affecting all levels of life with various environmental impacts by generating heavy metals. The presence of heavy metals even in trace amount is toxic and detrimental to all living organisms. The coal mine area in Bokaro is one of the “Toxic Hotspot” in India. Bacteria have evolved uptake and efflux mec...
